F1 2019: 5 Early Predictions for the Chinese Grand Prix

#1 Charles Leclerc gets the win back at F1 1000

The 2019 Bahrain Grand Prix was Charles Leclerc's arrival on the scene as a true championship contender for this season.

While the young Monegasque has a phenomenal drive on both Saturday and Sunday, a heartbreaking issue with the car lead Ferrari fans everywhere to weep as he had to limp home in third rather than take the victory that he truly deserved.

Everyone from Lewis Hamilton and the Mercedes crew to his teammate Sebastian Vettel and every fan out there wholeheartedly agreed and empathized with Leclerc.

With the new talent of Leclerc arriving in F1 as we reach this huge milestone of 1000 race, while I see the old guard of Hamilton taking pole on Saturday, I feel that in China he will finally get his first win after a fantastic drive and while it may not be a passing of the torch, it will be spark that lights Leclerc's possible patch to real World Championship contention.

Leclerc had a bad start in Bahrain but put in the laps to overtake Vettel who beat him at the start.

I think that in China even if he doesn't start from P1 and has to fight his way through to beat out the likes of Vettel, Hamilton, Bottas and Verstappen, I think he will rebuff the image he put forth in Bahrain and come home with is first win and put forth his case to be a legitimate contender this year!
